Invoking Auto Scan:

To start Auto Scanning, key in the following Hotkey combination:

1.Invoke HKM (see p. 99).

2.Press [A].

After you press A, you automatically exit HKM, and enter Auto Scan Mode, and Auto Scanning begins.

ŠWhile you are in Auto Scan Mode, you can pause the scanning in order to keep the focus on a particular computer either by pressing P or with a left-click of the mouse. During the time that Auto Scanning is paused, the command line displays: Auto Scan: Paused.

Pausing and exiting are the two ways to stop scanning and keep the focus on a particular computer. If you intend to continue scanning after a brief stop, pausing is more convenient than exiting Auto Scan Mode completely.

This is because when you resume scanning after pausing, you start from where you left off. On the other hand, if you exit and then restart Auto Scan, you start over from the very first computer on the installation.

To resume Auto Scanning after you pause, press any key or left-click. Scanning continues from where it left off.

ŠWhile you are in Auto Scan Mode, press [ ← ] to switch to the previous computer in the list; press [ → ] to switch to the next computer in the list. After the amount of time set with the SCAN INTERVAL elapses, the Scan function will switch to the next port.

When you skip, you only skip to the previous or next available computer that is in the Scan Mode selection (see p. 84).

ŠWhile Auto Scan Mode is in effect, ordinary keyboard and mouse functions are suspended—only Auto Scan Mode compliant keystrokes and mouse clicks can be input. You must exit Auto Scan Mode in order to regain normal control of the console.

3.To exit Auto Scan Mode press [Esc] or [Spacebar]. Auto Scanning stops when you exit Auto Scan Mode.
